In my experience, Poser will only go just so far in rendering tasks -- and no further: regardless of your system's specs.

Don't get me wrong -- Poser works for about 80% of the scenes that I do. But that remaining 20% can be a real pain.

If P6 chokes on a render, it chokes. There are various tricks that you can try to make Poser do its job on rendering. Sometimes those tricks work, and sometimes they don't.

Some work-arounds that I've found:

  1. Only do smaller, less complicated renders in Poser.
  2. Delete items from your scene until it works.
  3. Pick a different render application. Import your Poser scenes into that. My choice is Vue Infinite. There are others.

None of these are ideal solutions, IMO. But you do what you must in order to achieve the results that you want.

Most of the time, I can use P6 natively. But often not for complicated scenes. However, I will say that the problem was helped considerably by SR1.
